    i recently started my job search, and asked it for a list of top 10 companies with recent funding announcements and remote work that fit my profile.

    “We’ve all signed off on a standards guideline, and lots of PRs are falling short. Either we need more training time each sprint to reach it, or were going to have to officially reduce our standards. Let me know which one the CTO prefers”
